The last couple game we took too many bad outside shots. We went with a different philosophy and attacked the basket.

Our philosophy is we're going to guard you, and on the other end we're going to make you guard us.

We want to come at them with our speed so we're going with a smaller, quicker lineup. We want to use our full-court game and work it up the court quickly.

If they didn't put a body on us, they just jumped over us. Their quickness, speed and height were too much for us. We wanted to offset that with our shooting ability but they suffocated Christian.

This is a senior-laden team and I think that makes a difference. The kids kept their composure and played smart at the end.

Playing the (play-in) game helped us a lot. It's a big win for the program and for the section. It makes a statement about our section. We're a lot tougher than people give us credit for.
